Do not forget Joseph in the life of Christ as well. I think he gets short changed. Joseph was a righteous man as noted by Matthew.

Indeed. If Mary did have a unique continent marriage contrary to its description of leave and cleave, then i think Joseph should get more credit, as it normally i think it would be far harder for the male. Kind of like having a wedding cake in the refer but never eating it.

Yep. I doubt any of us Christian men could handle the situation of having a wedding cake and never eating it. I don't think most Christian women could handle it either, so either Mary and Joseph had other children, after Jesus was born, which is what I am sure happened, or Joseph doesn't get half the credit he deserves. All you need to do, is look at my profile page, to see my wedding cake, and you will understand.
